Raina’s impassioned attraction emphasises the importance of Dube’s contributions and the worth he brings to the group. Raina’s advocacy means that Dube possesses the requisite expertise and temperament to excel on the worldwide stage, notably within the high-pressure surroundings of a world event just like the T20 World Cup.
Raina took to social media platform X to overtly share his emotions, stating, “World Cup loading for Shivam dube! @imAagarkar bhai choose karo please,” he wrote.
The hard-hitting Dube performed a advantageous knock of 66 runs, which got here in simply 27 balls. Three fours and 7 huge sixes peppered his blistering knock.
It was Dube who fetched CSK’s first six of the innings within the 13th over off Lucknow Tremendous Giants (LSG) pacer Marcus Stoinis. Dube seamlessly slipped into his six-hitting avatar, and pacer Yash Thakur bore the brunt within the 16th over when the left-hander smashed him for 3 successive sixes.
Along with his spectacular hat-trick of sixes, Dube achieved a notable private milestone in the course of the match by surpassing the 1000-run mark for the CSK within the IPL.
CSK skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad (108, 60b, 12×4, 3×6) and Dube (66, 27b, 3×4, 7×6) added 104 runs for an entertaining fourth-wicket stand that gave impetus to CSK innings after a relatively subdued Powerplay (49/2) and the center passage. The duo collectively took CSK to a aggressive 210/four towards LSG in Chennai.
